Nye familiemønstre -nye utfordringer for velferdspolitikken

Nye familiemønstre representerer en betydelig utfordring for et velferdssystem som opprinnelig var tuftet på en helt annen familiemodell og et stabilt arbeidsmarked. Det er ikke noe som tyder på at de raskt endrede familiemønstrene er en utvikling vi har sett slutten på. Det er derfor behov for e...
